摘要
The authors studied data from 415 injured snowboarders to determine injury patterns. Injuries were evenly distributed between upper and lower extremities, and 41% were fractures. The wrist was the most common injury site. Snowboarders wearing hard-shell boots were more likely to injure their knees; those wearing soft boots, their ankles. In a nonstatistical comparison, snowboarders' injury rates were similar to Alpine skiers', but boarders were more likely than skiers to injure their upper extremities.
